HMD has launched the Vibe 2 5G in India at Rs 9,499. The phone carries a 6.75-inch display, a 6000mAh battery, and built-in Sarvam AI features. Sales open on 26 May.
The Vibe 2 5G sits in the entry-level 5G segment. It follows HMD’s pattern of offering larger batteries than most phones at this price. The 6.75-inch panel provides the main viewing area for media and daily tasks.
Sarvam AI adds on-device assistance for basic queries and language tasks. The 6000mAh cell targets users who need two days of light use without frequent charging. No fast-charging speed has been stated in the launch materials.
Build and performance details remain limited. The device runs a standard Android version with HMD’s usual software support window. Camera hardware and chipset specifications were not detailed in the initial announcement.
At Rs 9,499 the Vibe 2 5G undercuts several competing 5G models that offer smaller batteries. Buyers seeking longer runtime gain a clear advantage, while those prioritising processor speed or camera quality will need to compare exact benchmarks once reviews appear.
The phone is positioned for users who value battery endurance and affordable 5G access over premium features. Availability begins 26 May through major Indian retailers.
